Your POV
I'm in love... I've had a crush on this guy from school for the past few months now. His name was Chen... I feel all fluttery inside even if I just say his name... I fell for him when I bumped into him one day... The day that started everything...
*Flashback *
*sigh * Why does the teacher always make me stay behind in class to do errands?! I mean, he has other students he can choose from, but why me?! I was carrying papers that stacked above my head, to the office for my teacher as he always picked on me to do it. Although as I passed a corkboard.... I remembered how I used to doodle on all of the pins and pinned them on the board. As I got a closer look at the board, it had one of the pins I drew on the board. It was my favorite flower... A Sakura... I smiled as I thought of it...
*Crash *
I suddenly felt a solid body crash into mine. The papers then flew everywhere as we crashed into each other. I fell backwards as the papers flew from my hands, but I didn't feel the ground as I fell... I opened my eyes and I then saw a handsome student holding onto my body before it fell.... He had a dazzling smile, perfect cheekbones, amazing eyes, and was the perfect height for me. "Joseomida... I wasn't watching where I was going..." I couldn't speak at all as I saw his face, so I just nodded in reply. "Are you okay?" He asked me. I couldn't help but nod once more and I then saw him laugh after I nodded. "Hahahahahahah! You're a quiet one aren't you!" He said as he smiled brightly. His smiled enchanted me as he helped me pick up the papers. After a while, we soon found out that we didn't have any classes together, but as we passed each other in the hallway one day, we passed by the corkboard. "Haha... I wonder who drew this Sakura flower on this pin." He said as he grinned at the pin. I then quietly said, "I did..." Chen then looked at me then at the board. "Hey.... I have an idea... This board could be our secret message board..." He said as he smiled at the board. "Eh? How?" I asked him. "These..." Chen said as he grabbed a nearby box of pins. At that moment I knew what he meant. Luckily not that many people come by the corkboard, so it was like our own secret message board...
*Present *
That was only just a few months ago and as I passed by the board, I saw a new message from Chen, "________-AH~ I'M SO TIRED~ " I giggled as I saw his message and began pinning my message back. "THEN GO TO SLEEP EARLY PABO! " As 3 months past, Chen and I began to get really close and 'that' day came.... "Chen.... I... I really like you and.... D... Do you think I can go out with you?" I felt my heart beating fast and my face becoming red as I had just confessed to Chen... But the reply wasn't exactly how I wanted it to be.... "_______-ah... I... I'm sorry but.... I... I can't..." He said with a sorrowful voice. "E-Eh?" "Ne.... I... I'm sorry... _______-ah..." He then tried to give me a hug, but I backed away before he could. I then ran off as I didn't want him to see me cry...
As weeks past, I didn't see Chen... He seemed to have disappeared the day after I confessed. I felt my heart slowly breaking into pieces every time I would think of him, but there was something in my gut that kept telling me that there was something wrong with Chen. I decided to go ask a teacher about it, but as I asked... Let's just say... The reply wasn't so good.... Afterschool, I ran towards the nearest taxi and as I immediately got into the taxi, I immediately told him, "Bring me to Seoul Hospital!" The taxi man knew that there was something wrong with me as I had a panicked face and nodded. He then tried to make it to the hospital as fast as he could and as he dropped me off, I immediately thanked him and paid him. I then ran into the hospital and ran towards the front desk. "Chogiyo! Do you know what room Kim Jongdae is!?" "Ne... His room is number 143." "Kamsahabnida!" I then ran as I made my way towards his room and as I opened the door.... I saw Chen looking through the window as his weak body sat on the bed. "C-Chen?" I said as I tried to keep my tears inside. "________-ah?" He said as he stuttered. "C-Chen... W-What happened to you?" I said as I still tried to keep my tears in. "I... I.... I guess there's no use trying to lie my way out, huh?" He said as he looked down. He then got out of the bed slowly and made his way towards me. "Let's talk outside... It's pretty...." I then nodded and we then made our way outside. "_______-ah.... I... I don't have much time to live..." "Eh?" I said as a tear left my eyes. "M-Mwoh?" I said. "Ne... I don't have much time to live, but making a friend at school made me want to live just a little bit longer, but my body isn't cooperating that much... Do you know who that friend was?" "Who?" I asked as I tried to keep the flow of my tears inside. "It was you.... I wanted to keep seeing your smile everyday and I wanted to keep talking to you.... I just wanted to be by you for every second of my remaining life." He said as he smiled. I couldn't help but cry as I saw him smiling... I then wrapped my arms around Chen, "Chen.... I.... I love you.... I... I don't want you to leave me..." I said as I cried into his chest. "_______-ah..." "Ne?" "Can you do a favor for me?" Chen asked as his hand ran through my hair. "What is it?" "_______-ah.... Go on a date with me?" I felt like the world just stopped as I heard him say that. I couldn't speak at all and so I just nodded. "Haha... You're still a quiet one after all of these months..." I loved his smile, his personality, just.... Everything...
The Next Day (Saturday)
I dressed up nicely as I was about to go on my date with Chen. I smiled to myself as I got one last look of myself before I left. I then left the house and Chen and I agreed to meet at the movie theater. "______-ah!" Chen yelled as he saw me from across the street. I waved as I saw his happy, smiling face as he saw me. I couldn't help by smile like an idiot as I saw him. As I made it across the street, we then started our date. We first went to the movies and afterwards, we went to the park to walk around a bit. "Ah! Apo!" Chen said as he held his stomach. "Chen! Are you okay!?" I began to panic as I sat next to him on the grass. "Just kidding." He said as he smiled brightly at me. "Yah! You scared me!" I yelled at him. "Hehehehe.. I just wanted a chance to do this to you." He said. "Do what?" Chen then suddenly leaned towards me and pecked my cheek. I immediately began to blush and held onto my cheek as Chen pulled away. "Hahaha, your face is all red." He said as he laughed at me. "Y-Yah! K-Kim Jongdae!" I said as I stuttered. "Mwoh? What are you going to do to me?" He cooed. I couldn't think of anything and so I immediately pecked his lips. I felt like the world just stopped as I kissed his lips. I had my eyes closed, but I felt his soft, warm lips on mine and it just felt like the world was just right. As I pulled away, Chen had a really red face as I also had a red face. We then sat on the grass together as we had an awkward silence for a while. As minutes passed, we then saw the sun going down. It looked as if the sky was a rainbow color. I then felt Chen's hand slip on top of mine as we sat together. I then blushed a bit and moved my way towards Chen and leaned my head onto his shoulder. I then felt his head lean onto mine and I felt that this was just so... Perfect.... As the date ended, Chen had to leave, but before I left Chen immediately stopped me as he held onto my hand, "Chen? What's wrong?" "_____-ah... Promise you won't forget me." He said with a serious tone. "Of course... How could I ever forget you..." I said. I then saw Chen smile once more and before I got out of his grasp, Chen suddenly pulled me in for a hug. "Thank you ______-ah..... You were the first and last person that I ever fell in love with.... I love you _______-ah..." Chen then made his head move towards mine and I felt his lips touch mine once more. His kiss was sensual yet his kiss was gentle to the touch. As we departed from the kiss, I then replied, "I love you too Chen..."
A few days later...
That morning.... I got news that Chen had died.... I missed him so much, but I can't be with him any longer. It breaks my heart that I won't be able to see his gentle, bright smile again. As I was walking around the hallways during break, I came across Chen and I's secret message board and there was a message that wasn't there before.... "_________-AH~ BE HAPPY! I LOVE YOU~ -Chen" I felt tears run down my face as I read the message. "Ne..... I'll be happy.... For you Chen.... I love you too...."
The End
